Athens Quinta

I was not pleased at all with my time at Athens Quinta. While this property has decent ratings on the internet and somehow made it in my travel book, I am shocked guests are able to sleep here comfortably. My single room was quite possibly the noisiest room I have ever stayed in. It is right outside the street. Walls were paper thin, and the hostel was loud well past quiet hours. I could hear every word from the TV program that the front desk was watching, and was woken up throughout the night by people screaming on the street, moto bikes, and guests buzzing in and out of the hostel. I was woken up by noise over 8 times throughout the night. For anyone who is looking to recover from their jet lag, or rest between touring days, DO NOT STAY HERE. Further, staff was rude and slow to respond to my needs, and were not able to accommodate me to a quieter room or issue a refund.

If you like “quirky”, then this place is for you. Well kept old house where many rooms still use skeleton keys and you can eat your provided breakfast in the Hortus conclusus (outside garden). Affordable, clean, comfortable with a very helpful staff. (Always willing to answer my questions) Close to the metro and just about everything one would want to see in Athens!

Amazing staff! Beautiful and cozy place. Great location. The worst thing was leaving the place...

Very clean friendly staff. The top bunks could do with a shelf or basket for storage of small items but overall excellent facility.

Great location, Maria (head of staff) is excellent and went out of her way to help us!

We arrived at 5.30, we had been sent instruction on how to get in. So no panic about such a late arrival. Our room was cool and welcoming, the first morning was lovely after so little sleep. We had breakfast in a cool shady courtyard garden, We stayed for 6 days which was enough time to get round Athens and its ample history, it also gave us time to settle in as it were. The ladies at Athens Quinta we brilliant. On hand knowledgeable kind and helpful. We were not exactly central, it was central enough to walk everywhere

This place is in a fantastic neighbourhood. It’s not too touristy and all the nearby restaurant and bars are full of locals with a bustling atmosphere. Staff here were super friendly and helpful. They were able to give us great recommendations and advice whenever we asked. Everything was spotlessly clean and tidy. Bathrooms were well provisioned with toiletries. Great breakfast spread provided in the morning. Our room was next to the courtyard so I can imagine during tourist season it would be busy or noisy, but for us it was absolutely no problem.

Pretty hostel in a short walk to metro lines, restaurants, cafes. Nice people live in the property

The property is great for visiting ancient athens and the local area and staff are very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately it was very noisy with a bar just outside thats open until 2am every day.
